30 Things Most Woman Should Know and Should Have by the Time She’s 37.

By 37, we should know:

1. First impressions do count, whether we like it or not.
2. Our strengths and our weaknesses. Capitalize on them.
3. That age, truly is just a number.
4. Nobody will knock some sense into our head if we change for the worst.
5. Whatever that we wish for, it comes with a price.
6. If we feel like doing something, just do it.  Procrastination is evil.
7. How to say what we want to say without making things worst.
8. Generally, people don’t listen because there’s just too much ‘noise’.  
9. Taking a short break from our usual regime will preserve our sanity.
10. Things don’t go as plan? Adapt and adjust. Have faith that it is for the best.  
11. A not so perfect past is something that we all have to accept. Move on and move forward.
12. Everybody have trust issues. We can’t even trust ourselves.
13. How do we like our eggs.
14. To be very careful with words. Big bad words will always come back and haunt us.
15. Retail therapy is only considered as therapy, if we splurged using cash and not on credit.

By 37, we should have:

1. Lots of confidence, it is sexy!

4. Never look for acceptance.
5. Outgrown all the labels that people tagged us. Be our own label. Own it.

7. At least one pick-me-up book to read when we are feeling low, down and out.
8. Spend our time most with people that matters most.
9. Never revisit the old flame. There’s a reason why nothing happened in the first place.
10. Learn to cook at least one main dish and dessert as our specials.
11. Spend more time at the park. It may not be there forever.
12. Surprise our loved ones when they least expect it.
